Prime Berlin Location
This property is situated in one of Berlin’s most exclusive and historically significant locations – the tranquil Oberwallstraße, a side street of the world-famous boulevard “Unter den Linden.” Just steps from Hausvogteiplatz and surrounded by institutions such as the Federal Ministry of Justice and the German Foreign Office, the townhouse lies in the very heart of Berlin’s political, cultural, and historical centre.
Within walking distance is Gendarmenmarkt – arguably one of Europe’s most beautiful squares – framed by neoclassical architecture, the Konzerthaus and the German and French Cathedrals. Berlin’s Museum Island, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is also just minutes away, as are the Staatsoper Unter den Linden, Pierre Boulez Hall, and the Konzerthaus.
The surrounding area is rich in cultural institutions, luxury shopping and fine dining. Friedrichstraße, located just a five-minute walk away, offers exclusive boutiques, art galleries and renowned restaurants such as Borchardt, Lutter & Wegner, and Gendarmerie.
Public transportation links are excellent: Hausvogteiplatz underground station (U2) is just a two-minute walk away, providing direct connections to Potsdamer Platz, Wittenbergplatz (KaDeWe), Berlin Zoo, and Alexanderplatz. The nearby Museumsinsel station (U5) offers direct access to Berlin Central Station and other key city hubs.
This rare location offers a unique blend of urban vitality and private retreat, international atmosphere and historical depth – a place where exclusivity, culture, and quality of life come together in perfect harmony.
This townhouse is a distinctive architectural creation by Prof. Hans Kollhoff, whose work has shaped Berlin’s cityscape with iconic buildings such as the Kollhoff Tower at Potsdamer Platz and the classical ensemble at Walter-Benjamin-Platz. Known for his timeless interpretation of urban architecture, Kollhoff brings a sense of structure, dignity, and lasting quality to contemporary city living.
The property offers further development potential that enhances its unique character. On the rooftop terrace, there is the option to create an additional room of approx. 30 m². Furthermore, the 1st and 2nd floor unit can be complemented by a private terrace of approx. 60 m² – a rare and exclusive outdoor retreat in the centre of the city.
Legally, the building is divided into two residential units and one commercial unit. Up to 40% of the property may be used for commercial purposes. A fully residential use is also possible without restrictions. This flexibility makes the property ideal for private owners seeking a prestigious urban home, or for those looking to combine refined living and working in one place.
